Approach to Interactions with Owners, A/E's and Subcontractors <br />4 <br />JASON WHITING <br />Project Manager <br />Communication is key to every interaction <br />on a project. <br />Owner: <br />Understanding the project from the owner's <br />prospective is important to me. I like to be proactive <br />while fostering open and clear communication. I <br />also make it a priority to keep the owner updated as <br />it relates to work progress, schedules and budget <br />forecasts so they can make well informed decisions <br />throughout the project. <br />Design Team: <br />Respect of the designers and their design intent is <br />important to me. I understand the amount of energy <br />and work they have put forth in the design and <br />appreciate their creativity and forethought. if issues <br />do arise with design conflicts during construction, I <br />take a collaborative approach with the design team <br />to help arrive at a solution. <br />Trade Partners: <br />Trade contractors are the hard-working men and <br />women that are specialized in what they do to bring <br />the building out of the ground. With many trade <br />contractors on a project, it is important to closely <br />coordinate their scopes of work with others to <br />ensure smooth and efficient workflows. <br />MIKE ABEL <br />Superintendent <br />Communication is key for a successful project <br />with all parties involved. <br />Owner: <br />It's important to have an understanding of the needs <br />and expectations for the owner. Not only the final <br />product, but how we get there. Phasing, disruptions, <br />scheduling and how they affect the daily operations <br />of the operating facility. <br />Design Team: <br />Same level of communication is required with <br />the design team. Understanding the design and <br />specifications for the project is crucial. A team <br />approach to solving issues, working collaboratively <br />to come up with a solution is essential. From <br />pre -construction planning, scope expectations, <br />construction coordination and smooth turn over to <br />building operation. <br />Trade Partners: <br />The success of a project is dependent on the trade <br />partners buying into the schedule and project <br />phasing. This is established at the bidding stage of <br />the project with clear understanding of the scope <br />of work. I'll provide daily communication to the field <br />to safely execute the work for that day and detailed <br />planning of the next days, weeks, months of work. <br />CITY OF ELK RIVER I Elk River Public Safety Building Expansion and Elk River Fire Station #3 15 <br />
